UNC seeking big win against Virginia Tech

Posted Oct 29, 2009
North Carolina's senior defensive end E.J. Wilson has had to re-live not one, but two gut-wrenching defeats this week. UNC is coming off a 30-27 loss against Florida State last Thursday in Chapel Hill in which it led 24-6 early in the third quarter. But the Tar Heels wilted down the stretch as Seminole quarterback Christian Ponder completed his final 16 passes for 236 yards and three touchdowns. (Fayetteville Observer)
